Multi-core optical fiber connector countershaft packaging system

Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-core optical fiber connector countershaft packaging system, which belongs to the field of optical fiber connectors. The system comprises a rotary countershaft mechanism, an optical fiber end face imaging detection module, and a dispensing and packaging module. The rotary countershaft mechanism is provided with a rotary countershaft clamp and an optical fiber lockingclamp, the rotary countershaft clamp is used for adjusting the angle of a multi-core optical fiber for countershaft, and the optical fiber locking clamp is used for fixing the optical fiber after theposition of the optical fiber is determined; the optical fiber end face imaging detection module has the functions of automatic focusing and multi-core optical fiber end face recognition so as to achieve optical fiber end face detection and output multi-core optical fiber rotation alignment angle information to be fed back to the rotation alignment mechanism; and the dispensing and packaging module is provided with a dispensing unit, an ultraviolet curing unit and a thermal curing unit, the dispensing unit provides a polymer adhesive injected into the porous ferrule, and the ultraviolet curing unit and the thermal curing unit realize permanent fixing and packaging of the multi-core optical fiber. According to the invention, accurate positioning of the multi-core optical fiber in the multi-hole insertion core can be realized, so that a novel high-density multi-core optical fiber connector with very low insertion loss can be manufactured.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of optical fiber connectors, and more specifically relates to an axial packaging system for multi-core optical fiber connectors. Background technique [0002] In optical communication networks, space-division multiplexing optical fibers have received extensive attention because they can increase the transmission capacity of a single optical fiber by an order of magnitude, break the traditional Shannon limit, and achieve higher bandwidth transmission. Multi-core fiber (MultiCore Fiber, MCF) is a kind of space-division multiplexing fiber. Multi-core fiber is a new type of fiber with a cladding and multiple core regions. Each core region serves as an independent communication channel. , expanding the transmission capacity from the spatial dimension, which can meet the transmission requirements of future communication upgrades. Especially in the field of data centers, multi-core optical fiber data center communication is...
